You’ve found your dream home in the Melbourne suburb of Prahran and are preparing for auction day. However, how confident are you that your dream home or potential investment property is in the condition it appears to be?
A pre-purchase building inspection can provide invaluable peace of mind, ensuring that you are fully aware of the property’s true condition before committing to the purchase.
Purchasing a new home or investment property is one of life’s big decisions. In order to have complete peace of mind, have your property in Prahran undergo a building inspection.
This is especially important because the seller is under no obligation to let you know about the any structural defects the house may have – and most of the buyers are not aware of this.
To help you avoid unexpected repair costs when you purchase your dream property in the Melbourne suburb of Prahran, a pre purchase inspection is necessary.
All our Prahran Pre Purchase Building Inspections meet the Australian Standard AS4349.1-2007. This means you can be sure that we have the skills and expertise to undercover the worst and most costly damage a property can have. We will even uncover damage, where attempts are made to cover it up!
